When someone is experiencing a crisis, emergency or overwhelming stress, our first response can have a lasting impact. Psychological First Aid (PFA) is an evidence-informed approach that focuses on practical, compassionate support by promoting safety, calm, connectedness, self-efficacy and hope. Whether you're supporting a family member, friend, colleague or member of your community, these simple principles can help reduce distress, encourage resilience and guide people towards appropriate support when needed.
